Goat Fest

For many years ACT Natimuk has run a annual climbing film festival at Easter (or thereabouts) as a way of raising funds for it’s administration. Originally the brain child of Edwin Irvine, the mantle has now been passed onto others. The Festival includes a contest, with prizes of climbing gear and the coveted Golden Goat award, dinner, and a feature event, which may be a film or a talk.
Those who sat through the epic three hour lecture by acclaimed climbing photographer Glenn Robbins will carry the psychological scars for a long time.
